Imo he's likely not fond of the idea that Tillerson could create talks with NK that calms the growing tensions. And part of the reason they've grown is because of Trump's big mouth. So if Tillerson pulls off an agreement then Trump won't get credit. And we all know how obsessed he is with the need for praise and acknowledgement.

New Quinnipiac poll says majority of Republicans favor preemptive war with North Korea.

Trump has successfully convinced the party of stupid US needs to strike first and start a nuclear holocaust.

His bloodthirsty base might get even more excited with a twofer launch of nukes fired upon Iran simultaneously.

A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise for to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government. - Thomas Jefferson.

But thanks - notice the actually article 46% of Republicans WOULD SUPPORT a pre-emptive - cocasts said "FAVOR" that's quite a difference. Notice it also says:

It’s no surprise that Republicans are more hawkish on this than Democrats are; that’s generally the case on foreign policy. But basically nobody is talking about the prospect of a strike right now. Even when Trump talks about it, he’s responding to North Korea threatening the United States or its allies.

Which basically makes cocasts a ****ing liar. Thanks again for posting the link

TFK, what a gift horse.
and
cocasts the lying troll......good work, TFK.
Btw, it's not a MAJORITY of Republicans who would "support" a preemptive stake like cocasts liar wrote above. As you noted, it's 46%.

Btw, a Washington Post-ABC News poll conducted a couple of weeks ago also differs markedly from the new Quinnipiac survey. The late-September Post-ABC poll asked whether the United States should launch a military strike “only if North Korea attacks the U.S. or its allies first” or “before it can attack the U.S. or its allies.” In that case, 23 percent overall and 30 percent of Republicans picked the preemptive-strike option, and Republicans were about two to one against it.

"The president has also made clear to me that he wants this solved diplomatically," Mr Tillerson said.

"He is not seeking to go to war," he continued.
...
Contrary to what Mr Tillerson said on CNN, the President has previously said that he has told his secretary of State that discussions with North Korea were pointless.
